[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timchoi89:
Whenever I make outgoing calls to the 'internet number' in GB, I can't hear anything from whoever I call and he hear me either. I use Gizmo 5 as my SIP account and I know that the calls go through because Gizmo 5 deducts a penny each time I call someone.

I know that there are simple solutions like using SIPDroid or Google Voice Callback but I just want to use native SIP client over wifi (I'm only using SIP in places I have no signal). I've already tried searching in the forums and in google if this is a known issue and how to fix it (without using 3rd party apps) but I can't find anything (the only things I'm finding is how to set up SIP over 3g and that requires 3rd party apps).

Can anyone help me on this please? Again, I just want to use the built in GB SIP client. Everything works fine (I can receive phone calls fine) and the only problem is that I can't hear anything from whoever I'm calling and the person I'm calling can't here me either.

Thanks for your help!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerp_:
check your router to see if it supports NAT or things like that.

even better, test it with you PC to see if you get 2 way audio.

it common to have 1 way audio on SIP calls. and its usually down to the router not able to route the RTP traffic back to you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timchoi89:
Thanks for the answer! This kinda sucks since I'm mostly using this in my university's library where I have no signal and I can't control the router. I'll try this at home though tonight.

When I receive calls in the library me and the other person can hear each other fine. How is that different from placing calls?

anyone know if you can go straight to 2.3.3 from 2.3.1? Or do i need to update to 2.3.2 first then do the latest update.

Tried updating to 2.3.3 and im getting some errors.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
yes, just download the nandroid backup from the DEV section and restore it
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GchildT:
No you cannot upgrade from 2.3.1 to 2.3.3. Yo have to follow the upgrade pathe i.e. 2.3 -> 2.3.1 -> 2.3.2 -> 2.3.3. As the post above suggests, you can install a 2.3.3 Nandroid and go from there. There should be no SD card data loss.

Hi, all.

I'd like to know if anyone else has this problem or if this is my phone. I have this problem:

1. I set google voice call option to "ask every time I make call."

2. It works for a little while.

3. Then, if I try to make calls later, it hangs at "Connecting..." It doesn't even ask me if I want to call via GV or not.

4. Once I go into GV and change the setting to "Never use GV to make calls," the problem goes away, and I can make calls just fine.

If you have GV and can post your experience or if you know a fix for this, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

:(

OK I need help and serious input since these are the things I use the most. I will give you a little history also. On 0:00 Tuesday 02/22/2011 I downloaded samsung update for EB13. I flashed the phone, and everything went well even the one-click-root-2.5.5. So with my issues appearing I researched and seen many others had issues not like mine. I called Sprint they had me do a hard reset on my phone. Still the issues are a not real bad but I had having to restart my phone 6 or 7 times a day. I even went to the store and the rep said there were no so called "quote issues with the EPIC cause he has one". I need my phone re-flash. I told him I did that. He said have a hard reset done to it. I did it the day after the I flashed it. I told him I still have issues and no one has been able to help me. He said take the phone back and get a new one then. His name is Mike at the Sprint Store on Oleander Dr Wilmington, NC. Lots of help Mike. Just admit the software is sh*t like the phone reps did on the phone. Re-flashing and a hard reset is something I already did, and removed alot of useless app, from the guide on switch apps to remove. So PLEASE someone come up with some mods or ideas to help me. PLEASE. I got no clue on this.

1. Txt messaging. After an hour of non use when trying to send a txt. The txt hangs. I tried de-activating and a signal refresh. Dont work. Only fix is re-start the phone, and re-send the txt.

2. Bluetooth. After non use for an hr Bluetooth says it is still connected. When calls comes in however it is not connected. I have to manual connect, or if no call, I have to do a signal refresh. Not even turning off bluetooth works. The Sprint rep says it is the only work around they have and know about it.

3. QIK. Ok Qik on 2.1 used do a portrait on the front camera. Now it records only as landscape, but shows as portrait. I spoke to Sprint about this also and they said it some I am going to have to deal with. I drive alot to job to job, so I dont have alot of time to play with settings.

Txt messenging found

I found the same issue and a fix for it other than reboot. This was found back in July on another phone and carrier but with Android 2.2 Froyo. So this issue is with the OS its self.

A. Settings menu

B. Applications menu

C. Manage Applications

D. Messaging app

E. Force Close button

Re: Android 2.2 text message problem

Fixed it!!! In case anyone else out there is having the same problem, the way I fixed it was by going to the Settings menu from the home screen, then to the Applications menu, then to Manage Applications, then to the Running tab, then to the Messaging app with the icon that Andriod uses for the text function. Then I clicked on the Force Close button. Now it sends text message with no problem. Go figure.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Back up your data with MyBackup Root, use Odin to restore full, clean EB13, then use the Market or AppBrain to reinstall your apps, and your backup to restore only the data for those specific apps. That will solve almost all problems related to the OTA update, including yours, OP.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
But he used the .exe...

I think he mightve removed something by accident...was the "apps safe to remove" thread updated for EB13?
[Epic 4G General] cadams14:
Thanks everyone for replying with some needed input and issues of your own. I do think I can live with the messaging app since I found a temp fix for it(force close). I also believe I can live with Qik recording in landscape, even though it was not designed that way for the front camera. However I cannot live the issue of Bluetooth. I need as I will never put a touch screen phone to my ear or listen to it on speaker, like some of these dumb a$$ doing this walking around in public. I drive from job to job and it is very difficult for me to play with setting while driving. NC is becoming a handsfree cell phone state like so many others, and there is no txting while driving at all. It is a dangerous thing to do. I have read older posts from other phone that received 2.2 much earlier in the year and I believe that is OS is $hit. However 2.1 does not have Bluetooth activated command dialing.

*So for you people that are catching up, I did install from the exe and seemed to work fine and even after I rooted with a clockworkmod 2.5.1 recovery. I even did a hard reset with Sprint. I did not removed any important applications as mobile hotspot is this there. I have not upgraded to any new kernel, or rom. These issues are minor, but a major inconvenience. Bluetooth will work for awhile, but then with a call comes in after a hr of rebooting I have to connect manually after it has been paired. ""Sprint said that this was a issue known in the OS, but I am wondering if anyone has found a kernel or mod to correct this issue?""
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Why not back it up and then go into cwm and clear the cache/DCache and then run the .exe without removing ANYTHING and see if your problems persist?

If they don't, then take out an .apk one at a time until you find the one that breaks your functions...

read too much in these forums, formatted too much on my comp.

i have got nothing but choppy video and sound delays. I dont buy into the tegra2 not being able to play 720p, that is complete crap.

but my concern is has anyone really been able to achieve some sweet 720p video? and if so can you let us know how you did so?

i have ALOT of converters so im ready to try once more before i begin to hate my life.

PS: I have absolutely no credible sources ;) when i say this, but i believe a update of some sort will occur by this coming sunday (first week of march)

Use Handbrake. Simple and works great.

Set Video kbps to 2200

Set Audio to 160 kbps and samplerate to 48

On audio I also moved DRC to 4.0

Movies look great. Just make sure it is saving to mp4 and not m4v.
[Xoom General] DarkDvr:
Most of the people haven't even gotten their Xooms yet. It IS unfortunate that it doesn't come with 720p decoding build-in, but we know for a fact that Tegra2 can handle even 1080p.

So, like it or not, we'll just have to wait a bit. I'm sure they are working on proper harware-accelerated codecs. Even if Moto isn't, tons of private developers do.

We're early to the party, so grab a beer, sit down and wait for everyone to come =)

[Xoom General] verusevo:
Ill have to give some fine tuning a chance with my videos. I just coverted a 720p copy of inception using handbrake. I used the apple preset as its listed to work with ipad so i figured it wouldnt be much difference. While the movie and audio do play as they are supposed to im not happy with the frame rate. Its by no means unwatchable. But it is not nearly as fluid as i would like and the irregularity in framerate isnt even consistent. It gets choppier(i use the term loosely) at different intervals almost like im watching a streaming video or playing on a computer whos resources are tapped out. its really annoying because i cant even really gauge the consistency of it becuase its an inconsistent problem.

Im gonna try the settings someone a few post up suggested and see if that works out better. But even if they do its really a shame as most brain dead people can use an ipad. But they expect your average consumer to be able to do all this just to play a frikkin video and still call this thing an ipad competitor?
[Xoom General] muyoso:
No one ever said that Tegra 2 can't play 720p. People have said that it can't play 720p high profile, which is pretty much all 720P that one doesn't encode themselves. Basically not all hd video is created equal. Others have said that it can play 720p but is just lacking some codecs.
[Xoom General] Phylar:
Apple wants all their customers to just buy stuff of iTunes, so if you do that, it's braindead, but if not, they're in the same boat as us. It only plays 720p baseline (I hear XMBC for it can do 720p high profile, but you have to jailbreak to install it) so it needs to be converted too. Handbreak with presets is what I've been doing for my iPhone 3G, 4, and now Dell Streak.

I've been researching this alot this weekend, and to summarize the issue with 720p/1020p video, the deal is with the various bitrates and profiles of h264 video in particular. NVIDIA Tegra 2 and Motorola only claim to support 720p and 1080p baseline profile. So, for conversion workarounds, there is a Handbrake preset - See Keitht's post. I don't consider this an acceptable solution of course. I keep hearing that Notion Ink Adam's can play 720p high profile after an update. It would be nice to have that player on the Xoom - follow this thread here for info on that. As for now, QQPlayer does the best for 720p high profile - my eyeball guess is that it's playing 10fps now... someone on the forums here did the 1.5ghz overclock and said it's "acceptable" but I don't feel like overclocking my xoom 50% myself :P

So, I think this will be addressed, eventually. There are WAY to many Tegra 2 devices coming out for someone NOT to invest the time into getting a good player for it - LG's slate, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, Motorola Atrix, etc etc are all going to be Tegra 2 based.
[Xoom General] Pihrana:
The details in this thread definitely work, and work well. Yes it is going to take a while to convert things and yes that is a pain the ass to re-encode everything but the results ARE worth it.

THANKS
[Xoom General] verusevo:
*SIGH* the trials and tribulations of the educated consumer.... why do they mock us so?!?
[Xoom General] verusevo:
Great this definitely works. Just finished up a convert of Megamind 720p and it is smooth as silk.
[Xoom General] keitht:
Funny because I ordered a Notion Ink Adam before the Xoom came out and should ship next week. Since I got the Xoom, I do not want to open the box so I can sell it brand new unopened. Wish I could at least test the video.
[Xoom General] Nvious1:
So can anyone tell me does the "High Profile" mean like high compression because when I am doing re-encodes with the previous posted Handbrake settings I am seeing almost double the file output size of the original?
[Xoom General] paulshields:
The profile setting indicates the quality of the video stream. There are lots of different profiles within the h.264/avc/mpeg-4 standards but the most common are (snaffled from wikipedia):

Baseline Profile (BP)

Primarily for low-cost applications that require additional data loss robustness, this profile is used in some videoconferencing and mobile applications. This profile includes all features that are supported in the Constrained Baseline Profile, plus three additional features that can be used for loss robustness (or for other purposes such as low-delay multi-point video stream compositing). The importance of this profile has faded somewhat since the definition of the Constrained Baseline Profile in 2009. All Constrained Baseline Profile bitstreams are also considered to be Baseline Profile bitstreams, as these two profiles share the same profile identifier code value.

Constrained Baseline Profile (CBP)

Primarily for low-cost applications, this profile is most typically used in videoconferencing and mobile applications. It corresponds to the subset of features that are in common between the Baseline, Main, and High Profiles described below.

Main Profile (MP)

This profile is used for standard-definition digital TV broadcasts that use the MPEG-4 format as defined in the DVB standard.[20] It is not, however, used for high-definition television broadcasts, as the importance of this profile faded when the High Profile was developed in 2004 for that application.

High Profile (HiP)

The primary profile for broadcast and disc storage applications, particularly for high-definition television applications (for example, this is the profile adopted by the Blu-ray Disc storage format and the DVB HDTV broadcast service).

You'll probably find a lot of movies available via "usual sources" are in high profile. On mobile devices these usually require some form of hardware acceleration to play due to the high bitrate. Not sure if there are many tablets that can play 1080p high profile natively. The Galaxy Tab is certainly one, but those devices with Tegra 2 chipsets do seem to have a hardware limitation with regards to playing high profile (and hence high bitrate) video. It'll be interesting to see how the Samsung 10.1 fares, as that happens to also have the Tegra 2 chipset. Samsung have always been good at hardware accelerating video, so it would be a backwards step for them to release a new device that can't play media that their previous device could.
[Xoom General] SS2006:
paul so basically the xoom can only do 720 p baseline?

do apps like Rockplayer and Vplayer help? (without converting)
[Xoom General] paulshields:
I'm sure 720p baseline should be fine with any player. 1080p baseline should be fine. Probably main profile too. The problems arise with high profile HD material, which unfortunately is what a lot of stuff out there is encoded with. Then again, I guess most people aren't going to stuff HD movies on their tablets. The 4GB max file size on fat32 gets in the way as much as anything else :).

As an aside. I've been using Plex server to transcode and stream movies (including bluray rips) from nas to tablet (running Plex player) with excellent results. But that's probably best left for another topic...
[Xoom General] generic.imitation:
According to Motorola, if you keep your 720p video bitrate at or below 20Mbps it will work no issues. 3rd party apps should cover the file extension issues. If you have videos at 15Mbps there should be no loss in quality from 20Mbps, except for filesize.

[Xoom General] SilentMobius:
Just to manage peoples expectations here. I have a Vega that uses the the Tegra2 T20 and we've been looking at the video support for a while now

The Xoom will only _ever_ be able to decode h.264 at 720p and higher using its hardware decoder, a 1ghz arm cpu is not up to the task (Thus rockplayer et al will never have a passable framerate at these resolutions)

The hardware decoder is only used by the Android core media framework (stagefright and opencore, though I think opencore is gone now)

The _default_ build on Android does not support parsing MKV containers (though this really should be built in now as it's royalty free and WebM uses a subset of MKV as its container) Samsung tend to add AC3/DTS and MKV parsing to their devices (the source for that is closed).

At best (assuming the Android libs were performing at 100%) The T20 can handle Main profile at 1080p and High profile 720p (that is from Nvidia) but in practice there may be Android bottlenecks (or Nvidia nay be overstating). But this is the highest the Xoom can ever hope for.

Short version: Don't wait, it will most likely not get any better. You'll just get frustrated.
